Make sure to check gpu-z tool for your ASIC rating to best select which rom to use.
http://www.techpowerup.com/gpuz/
Use the latest GPU-Z tool and in the tool right click on the top left hand corner and click on check ASIC quality.
Notes: MSI Afterburner does not work with these rom files if using MSI Afterburner select another option such as
Sapphire Trixx, MSI Afterburner throws card in a low power and clock state if using to overclock with or set a
profile so again do not use this tool, Bios will work at there clock rates when no tool is used and can overclock
Or set a fan profile with another tool other than MSI AfterBurner.
Voltage was set far apart to avoid damaging cards and voltage limits raised high enough so you don't have to
use any unofficial overclock tool. Core and Memory Overclock Limits are also raised as well as lower 3D memory speed
to match High 3D speed.
MSI TWIN FROZR III OWNERS FOR NON BOOST CARDS
These were made to flash directly on your cards no having to force the flash or use -f. Its more of an update taken
from my modded MSI Twin Frozr III cards so enjoy, added Boost edition add the bottom under profiles.
General Info
These bios may work for other cards, its depending on the limits of your card, and depending on your motherboard. Some motherboards mostly newer ones have some type of checksum hash check and others don't, so it might not be possible to cross flash. I my self was limited to this once i got a Asus Crosshair V-Z motherboard and nothing but the stock bios would work so i had to resort to doing something. Interested in having your stock bios image flashed look further down the page under (Taking Request for unlocking and changing clocks/ voltages).
Info Regarding Bios modding
http://www.techpowerup.com/forums/showthread.php?t=183423 I used this to help with the editing bios on a curve rather than flash all, here is the tool. Read first further down regarding this tool.
Radeon HD 7000 BIOS Editor v0.42.zip 1399k .zip file
Notes about tool and warning.
This tool is still in the beta stages while it is a good idea to use the tool for manual editing to calculate the numbers for you but not to try and use it to insert the code for you and note in the picture it is recommend to use the patch all table i would advise against this. Reason is the signal curve is a bit off. is would make much more sense if the tool had the ability to edit all the ASIC as the same time before trying to patch or save the image
EX of stock image.
Notice stock vrm signal a nice curve.
Now one that was edited by the tool.
As you can see in the picture the vrm signal is kind of all over the place and so is the voltage, its not even what i set it at, stock image showed for .990v vrm signal is 110 while this one is 135 so the closer to ASIC 102.3 your card will over volt instead of having some vdroop, while its a great tool to calculate what vrm signal to use for what voltage and the ASIC quality you have and manually edit your voltage and vrm signal in bios with a hex tool yourself. Its not good to use the tool for any other purpose than that, (At least the latest version listed) The wrong vrm signal used can actually end up using more volts, and your card will not have a vdroop under load and could cause damage. So its still better to manually edit. Great as a calculator. Maybe in time it will be better. Making a profile suited for your card is the best option, after time your card will drop in ASIC quality, nothing drastic but setting a profile that is suited for your card is best for load conditions. Thats why the manufacture set the profiles the way they did, the last profile is the cap limit voltage for your card. This is why i set the last two profiles the way i did for the image.rom files i created, so be wise on how you set a profile, also your ASIC quality will run at what ever is the closest too. You do not need to make your profile run at max, and you do not need to starve your card of voltage it runs an average between the ASIC quality that it needs, set the last profile you edit for you max volts desired, allow enough wiggle room so you do not over volt your card adding extra heat and degrading your card. Its ideal to test your card, see what frequency you can run and what voltage is needed with out using power tune. Allow some overhead if you wish to be able to overclock higher. Ex. If you want 1150core and 1400mem but your card can run 1225 core and 1500mem but is too hot well set it for the lower of the two depending upon your needs.
How to use the Tool
For those who want to save time, just read the instructions, it works for most reference cards.
This is all in this line.

values are here on the bottom which you would flip in reverse and enter in the bios such as it is in the top. You can tune the bios how you like these are modified for general purpose so mostly if not all people can use them and not have to mod there own bios like i did this also is the reason why i set the ASIC values so low for the higher rated ASIC so as not to kill anyones cards and yet allow overclocking voltage head room. Thanks again to the maker of the tool because without it it would have been a while longer till i figured it out but his tool is pretty dead on but If you could only mod all portions and ASIC to your own values then patch instead of save a patch and try again which causes errors, anyways maybe it will be better soon.
Voltage unlocking
In this image above notice there are two values of 6A 04 which in you reverse to 04 6A=1113 which is the decimal value or 1.113v, there are two spots here one is the voltage you would see in a tool utility and the other is the cap.
Now in the image above i have edited both the values to 64 05 which in reverse is 05 64=1380 in decimal value or 1.380v now for the software test.
Notice the image above the value for the GPU VDDC third column the max voltage is the new value, and card is throttling according to the ASIC i set for load.
If you are feeling brave enough to try remember to edit the checksum to avoid conflict.
Max volts
Notice in the table above this is the voltage table is pretty easy to find, look to the rignt and see the stair way to volt city, ha ha its all the yyy yyy yyy's. The voltage table ( now this is from bottom to top/ reverse) starts with a FF 03 / 03 FF = 1023 or 102.3% ASIC quality. and ends with a break of two
00 00 . Some tables are longer than others. If you just want to adjust max voltage. Go to the last set of numbers.
Here in the image above is the last set so from reverse order which amd has coded 02 B8=696 or 69.9% Man thats leaky and an okward number they chose. 00 98=152 or 152vrm signal (not all cards have this) 04 E8=1256 or 1.256v that this card is max. Now depending on your ASIC if its low or high is how you would set the last number for ASIC to be cautious. I would set it as 40% but thats just me. Edit 04 E8 to which ever value you wish. Vrm signal is going to vary to low and more vdroop, to high and overvolting, use the tool provided, if it does not work with your bios, download a bios that will because you only need it as a calculator anyways, enter in the asic value. Its better to be a little lower and have some vdroop than be to high and over volt. Now correct checksum to stock file size and your all set up for an update.
Making a stable profile and rom
To make a profile just for every day use set it up using the vendor scale, don't change the ASIC values just edit the Vrm signal and the Voltage. Edit around your cards ASIC.
In the image above is the voltage table at the end of the table is 7E 04 which is 04 7E= 115000 or 1.115v. Before you edit the last value look for two more that are the same numbers and edit them to the same value as the last one you are editing. Note its in another spot as well, and if you have a voltage cap or locked bar its in a third spot above the other two close by.
Here is the last spot to edit to link the voltage, its always by a group of oo's on the right hand bar as you can see or look for the value you replace in the hex editor and its the next one down. Not all cards need this, some cards in this spot it affects idle voltage only change if it was the last value on your voltage table.
Offsetting Vrm +1
Offsetting the Vrm +1, by setting vrm signal to +1 it will reduce vdroop, voltage for my cards are set at 1.093v, previous vdroop under load was 1.051v sometimes as low as 1.046v by using the Ati tool as a calculator, i simply set the vrm +1 higher than it stated.. now under load im at 1.075v for a setting of 1.093v a little smother too. A setting higher setting will have a quicker response time under load but at the expense of heat, a good cooler or water is recommended. Try not to off set too high i would keep it under +2.
Digital Signing
Voltage has a form of digital signing but really the only program that corrects it is Msi afterburner, so until a solution is up don't use it.
In the digital signature it has the core frequency effective clock but in a set of 2 and ram frequency effective clock in a set of two. Also there is the three voltage's that tie into the three voltages that you would have linked. Don't panic it can be edited. Note this is from an Asus DC2T 7970, only card i have ran into that has this, after going online and looking up bios files from techpowerup.com/vgabios only the newer non reference cards have a digital signature, even though you can edit Asus cards are locked in more ways then one, need more testing on how get them working.
Checksum
For those not familiar with this each bios file has a checksum value and the file knows it and some motherboards check for it. Save an original copy of your file then check the value and save the value to a file. There are few places to change a value
Taking Request for unlocking and changing clocks/ voltages. No longer taking request.
Boost Cards,
Are close to the same accept there is two voltage tables, sometimes one voltage table is reversed. Also there is an additional set of core speeds which need to be edited to what you choose. To disable boost match voltage in the voltage table and core speeds.
MSI After burner Warning
MSI After burner does not work with modding your bios its the only one so far, if recognised the moddified code even thought the checksum was corrected and set back to stock. voltage but not the clock speed and it locks the card at a low 2d clock speed, so if you want to have a monitoring software or another tool i have listed one in the top of the page, or use something other than MSI After burner. Frequency's stick but voltage will drop at least with MSI cards, i have not tested any other card since i only have MSI cards to work with. Once flashed if you don't use a tool you don't have too clocks will stay and so will voltage, but if you want to over clock you can with another tool since i have lifted max voltages so you won't need to use any unofficial tool anyways. If you need a fan profile use something else other than MSI After burner.
Purpose of Editing bios
Is to raise your stock voltage and adjust your frequency to be your new stock clock and not to have to have a tool installed, or to have the limits raised to work with most tools besides MSI after burner at this time.

New Tool
VBE7 Tool, Created by darkhmz with the help of (DroiDMester)
Notes about this tool:
Like the other tool it flashes the whole voltage table, so its very card specific for the clocks that you set it up as. Also it changes the checksum when modifing as well, so if you have a blank screen when rebooting you will need to go back and edit your checksum for the bios in order for it to work for you. Cards such as most XFX cards will need the checksum modded and others using newer motherboards which has a form of hash check for the gpu will need it as well. But overall its very simple tool to use. Does not work with 7790 cards at this time.
With this tool you will be able to
Change Vendor ID / Subsystem ID (not recommended)
Change clocks and voltages
Change OverDrive's core clock and memory clock limits, TDP limit, power limit
Make custom fan profile
There are some limitations though...
You cant change 2D / UVD voltages
You cant set 2D / UVD clocks higher than the values stored in BIOS (these limitations are intentional, without these limits powerplay would go nuts...)
The following voltage regulators are fully supported: CHL822x, CHL8214, UP1637, UP1801, ST6788A, VT1556M
For unknown voltage regulators, you can select voltage from a predefined table.
When you open a file, the first thing you'll see is the Overview panel with some information about the loaded BIOS
...including BIOS version, Device ID, VRM type, memory type(s) supported by BIOS etc...
Notes regarding the 3D voltage(s) displayed on the PowerPlay panel
VBE7 shows the first entry of the voltage table, which is the highest voltage (for the lowest ASIC quality). So, for example, if your GPU's ASIC quality is 85%, and needs 1050mV, but the first entry of the voltage table is 1188mV (70.9% ASIC quality), the displayed value would be 1188mV. You'd expect 1050mV but its not a problem, because if you edit the voltage, VBE7 modifies all entries of the table, which means the GPU will get the voltage you set, regardless of ASIC quality.
Also, since its not possible to adjust voltage by 1mV steps, VBE7 recalculates the value - while taking into account the VRM type - when you leave the edited field.
If you want to get rid of boost, just make your 3D clocks / voltages equal, thats what i did with my Tahiti LE
Fan Profile
You can make, save, and load your custom fan profiles.
A few words about temperature hysteresis... Basically, temperature hysteresis is the fan controller's sensitivity to temperature changes (applied to decreasing temperatures only). For example if the controller has a hysteresis of 6°C, and the last fan speed change was at 72°C, the fan speed wont chage while the temperature is higher than 72-6 (66°C). Without hysteresis, the fan speed would change too frequently, which is really annoying.
New Fan Profile Editor in version 0.0.7
How to use
Save your BIOS with GPU-Z
Open with VBE7
Modify
Save
Think twice before flashing
Flash your modified BIOS either with atiflash or atiwinflash (preferably atiflash) and use the -f parameter to force flashing
Reboot
Please read the following before you give it a go
This is a new software so even though it worked for me and some others, i cant guarantee it will work for you as well. USE IT AT YOUR OWN RISK!
Dont forget to make backup of your original BIOS
Use it only if you know what you're doing, and if you can recover from a bad BIOS flash if something goes wrong...
This software is not foolproof, use it carefully
Modifications only affect the legacy BIOS, and after saving, UEFI image will be disabled (in case you have UEFI vBIOS)
If you're experiencing problems with your modified BIOS, please post your original and modified files.
